Great place to eat, the Peppermill also has a great poker room! Very friendly service!

Great AYCE sushi experience; would 100% come back. Table is first set with sourdough bread and lots of whipped butter. SO HARD to resist when you know you have a sushi feast coming, but I did my best to hold off. We had iPads to order as much to our hearts content and the AYCE came with a bunch of appetizers if you wanted them; like clam chowder soup, miso, chicken wings, baked clams, and more. I tried a bite of chowder, which was decent--but I'd try to avoid filling myself up with it. The chicken wing was nice and crispy and a great flavor and the clams were delish. The sushi/rolls were all really good and fresh tasting. I do wish the AYCE included some of the specialty options like the uni, scallops, and others...or at least I wish there was a tier of price points for those items, but I understand that maybe that would make it more unpredictable. All in all, the ambiance was fancy and the service super professional. Locals also receive a discount with a license/players card, so definitely don't forget it if you live here! read more

AYCE sushi is super popular in Reno which I feel like I don't see often in San Diego, so I was excited to come here. We had a reservation and were seated within 10 minutes. At every seat, there was an iPad with a menu for you to scroll. We all decided to share our sushi but ordered salmon, yellowtail, and tuna nigiri. They also had specialty nigiri that have crab and avocado on top that had funny names like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. Everything tasted great and our server brought out a little birthday dessert with a candle to celebrate our friend's birthday. read more

Their lunch specials are so much fun to show up for and enjoy! The smell of the restaurant is my favorite part about the dining experience there. Their soups are decadent and can't get enough! I love playing the slots at the bar prior to being seated. The place has a casual ocean vibe- upscaled with beautiful plates and serving ware. read more

All tasted fresh and yummy! It's AYCE and a lot of choices. Service was always good. Pretty ambience always makes you dress up pretty too. We will be back soon! read more

This is my go to venue when I am in the mood for sushi especially when I go for the AYCE (All You Can Eat) and I don't break the bank. I love the Nigiri sushi as it is not loaded down with rice leaving one to savor the topping. Same with the handrolls, more flavor, less rice. The atmosphere is most inviting and our server was extraordinary. I'll be back in September. read more

If you partake in the AYCE option (which is well worth it!), consider ordering hand rolls for a good majority of your meal. The umami flavors of each specialty roll just tastes better as a hand roll. If you like nigiri, they have every variation you can think of although the fish could have been fresher. For starters, miso soup, clam chowder, veggie lumpia, wings and edamame are great options. If you have room for dessert after chowing down, ice cream/sorbet is included with your meal. The raspberry sorbet ended the meal well for me and helped cleanse my palette. Service was attentive from start to finish. Ambiance was pretty awesome and the restaurant was beautiful. Too bad it's located on the casino floor and very hard to find. read more

My sister took my niece and I to lunch at Oceano Restaurant, located on the main casino floor of the Peppermill Casino. When we arrived at the restaurant, the restaurant was full of diners but our 3-person party was easily accommodated at a nearby table in the huge dining area. We were then handed some tablets which served as the restaurant's menu (fancy) and our delightful server: Marina, appeared soon after to take our order. We ordered a half-dozen oysters on a half shell for starters, the Oceano Trio (half a lobster roll, coleslaw and a cup of clam chowder) for my sister and I while my niece ordered a cheeseburger with a side of fries and coleslaw(?). Most of the food arrived in a timely manner (we had to remind our server about the oysters) and everyone enjoyed each of their meals. The service was exemplary especially from the buss person and our server; so overall, we had a positive and enjoyable dining experience. read more

Had a late lunch at Oceano which is a restaurant inside a casino inside a hotel! The food was wonderful. Delicious bread. Seafood sandwich had an abundance of seafood. The mixed grill included salmon, halibut and sea bass which were nicely cooked. My only issue: All the wait staff looked sad. It felt like they had lost their puppy. The decor in the restaurant made me feel relaxed. White and blue. Very pretty. read more

I love this restaurant! I had my wedding reception here in the private room. It was amazing food and service. Some ppl got off the menu and most of us did the all you can eat sushi, which was so good. We're locals so we got the 20% discount if you join the club. I'm the worst but one of the Asian regulars got us champagne for our wedding. Thank you to him!! As we were not even planning to have it. Overall will be coming here annually for our anniversary. Great hotel, awesome restaurant makes you feel like you're in Vegas and lots of parking. There is food here for anyone and they take card :) read more

We stopped in midafternoon for a spontaneous lunch because I had a clam chowder craving. The bowl was a large portion and it was filled with clams (needed more potatoes) and had nice seasonings. Delicious. It had a perfect consistency because it wasn't too thick, and yet it was not too soupy. Thankfully, it was not overloaded with cream either. My hubby had a Pacifica sandwich, which had a generous helping of shredded crab salad! The bread was perfectly toasted and encased the crab deliciously. Their fries are good too! Coleslaw that came with was refreshing as a side dish. Service from out waitperson Amy was kind and attentive. And the restaurant is just beautiful and a very pleasant place to dine. It was filled with diners, even in the afternoon. We don't usually go to casino restaurants, but Oceano is on our list as a place when craving great seafood. Looking forward to trying their ayce sushi sometime. We saw many platters of sushi pass by! read more

AYCE sushi dinner at around $45/person. Nigiri, hand rolls, appetizers. It's casino sushi, so adjust expectations accordingly. Some fish and rice were a tad dry. The yellow tail and salmon were a little better than other it's. Ordered a variety of sushi and nothing stood out as excellent or bad. Servers collect order tickets that you fill out. Standard service. Booth and table sitting with huge LCD screens with stunning landscape views. read more

We came in for lunch. Everything was great. We were very happy with chef Brandon. Thank you Brandon it was delicious !

Still one of my favorite places to go for fresh seafood and sushi. A great place to take my clients and out of town guests. Restaurant decor drenches you in ocean blue lights. The high ceilings and ocean blue decor gives a very light, bright under the sea feeling. Booths and tables are comfortable with additional seating at the sushi bar. Team members are attentive and makes great recommendations of the favorites. Lunch portion of fish & chips is crispy, crunchy and not oily. Comes with a bowl of clam chowder as well. I also recommend the Ahi Tuna Tower which is fresh and delicious. Others in our group enjoyed the all-you-can eat sushi menu and loved the variety of the menu and sushi combos. read more

We had the fish and chips and another soup-like dish with scallops, shrimp and little bit of lobster. The creamy broth in this dish had a sweet taste to it that ruined the seafood. Fish and chips had batter peeling off the fish which was sitting on top of a bed of soggy as fries. Oh well, at least the soggy is consistent on this dish. Never seen fish and chips served in a bowl before, the steam from everything in small container made everything wet and soggy. None of this food was good. The bread that was put on the table was way better than the entrees. Service was OK, the waiter was hustling his tips. Ambiance was really nice to look around, lots of cool lights. Some odd bullshit going on with table availability, they said 15 to 20 minute wait. When they texted us the table was ready we walked past 8 to 10 tables and booths that were empty. Food was so disappointing we would never eat here again. Total waste of $150. read more

I'm writing this review to save someone else from wasting their money. I took my kids here for dinner today, and despite all the glowing reviews, our experience was terrible. I paid $200 for four people, and the food was absolutely not worth the price. My daughter's $30 "rice bowl" was literally just rice with raw fish tossed on top -- nothing like what she expected. My other daughter ordered a specific roll, but they brought her something completely different, covered in large fish eggs she never asked for. She ate it anyway because it was expensive and didn't want to complain. The service was just as disappointing. My son and I ordered the all‑you‑can‑eat buffet. I asked the waitress if they had cooked octopus, since the one they served us (and the one listed on the menu) was raw. She told me they didn't have cooked octopus but did have cooked calamari, and that it was fine to order it with the buffet. I even double‑checked, and she said "of course." Only after we ordered did we find out it wasn't included in the buffet -- and we were charged $25 for overcooked calamari with a disgusting sauce. She never mentioned the extra charge. For the price, the quality, accuracy, and service were unacceptable. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Everything was good especially all you can eat sushi clam chowder was good, servers was very fast and nice

Super fast and relatively easy to find . The atmosphere is warm and staff are absolutely welcoming you. I had craving for a seafood dish . Calamari that we ordered was breaded freshly and less greasy with tasty sauce. We tried their seafood salad which was fresh with crab sauce. Highly recommended read more

Good food here usually but the last time eating here the ramen soup was way better... the broth was pretty bland. Had to use soy sauce to spiff it up a bit. Their sushi rolls pretty decent... though better elsewhere in California. Yes I would still come and dine here- plenty of choices for dinner. read more

Let's just start by saying everything is amazing here....service is great. We had a server name Sal, he was very professional, very prompt and attentive. We ordered the shrimp the sea bass in the octopus unbelievably amazing so that glass of Chardonnay and ice tea, young coleslaw is amazing !!! read more

Pleasantly surprised! It had been quite a while since I'd been here, but since we were headed to the casino anyway to support and listen to my dear friends, New Wave Crave (newwavecrave.com), one of the best 80s bands anywhere and one of the best bands around, who were playing music in The Terrace Lounge that night, dinner in the casino made sense and I was looking forward to revisiting after such a long time. I was the first person to review this place on Yelp back in 2011 (well before I became a Yelp Elite), but for some reason, they have this new listing/page and my review is buried in obscurity on their old listing/page. (https://www.yelp.com/biz/oceano-seafood-and-sushi-reno?hrid=skEhBfbiJ61Fp4eVXtELiQ&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct)) It's still luxuriously appointed, but not too fancy...very comfortable. We were led to a booth by a helpful, personable and smiling hostess. A busperson brought us water right away and we perused the menu. Very unique and current presentation of their menu...all on a tablet! Casino prices to be sure, but we took advantage of their 20% off for locals all day, every day, on everything! All you need is a players card. Once we figured out how to navigate the menu, we made our selections and waited for our server. Unfortunately, our waiter was average...it took him a while to get to us. He was kind of meek and not too personable, but took care of us in a reasonable, but not so efficient manner. The place wasn't busy and there was plenty of wait staff on duty, so it shouldn't have taken that long. It wasn't a negative aspect, just slightly disappointing... My dining companion ordered a Toasted Almond Martini [$18]. (Stoli Vanil Vodka, Kahlua Coffee Liqueur, Housemade Toasted Almond Syrup, Half and Half) It also had an Almond Crisp on it. Nice presentation, but a little sloppy. The whipped cream had fallen by the time the drink had made the short trip from the bar to our table. She liked it, although she thought it was a bit sweet. I ordered a Kirin Ichiban beer [$14]...great price...it's the equivalent of 2 beers (21.4 oz). She ordered Fish and Chips [$29] (Beer-Battered Wild Caught Iceland Cod) Outstanding...moist, flaky, deliciously seasoned fish with a light, crispy batter. Tangy Tarter Sauce was a great complement (also came with Cocktail Sauce). She got French Fries and Coleslaw as her sides. I ordered the Lobster Roll [$31] (Maine Lobster Meat, Celery, Mayonnaise, Toasted East Coast Soft Roll) I'm originally from the East Coast and grew up eating Lobster Rolls. I always have high expectations and I'm usually disappointed at what I get here in the West... This iteration blew me away! The right amount of seasoned mayo...just enough to hold it all together without being overly cloying or making it mushy. Nicely diced celery added the crunchy texture that's expected in the lobster. Served on a perfectly toasted hot dog roll...the traditional way. The lobster was delicious...cooked just right...great flavor and texture...and a reasonable amount of it. Not as large as I'd like, but still a good amount. I got crispy Sweet Potato Fries and Coleslaw as my sides. I LOVE Sweet Potato Fries and these were great...crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. The Coleslaw was delicious...just enough dressing to make it slightly creamy without being mushy...great flavor. Referring back to the service from our waiter...it took a while to catch his eye to request ketchup for our fries...he seemed oblivious and finally looked our way after passing us by a few times. You'd think that ketchup would be brought to the table with any order of fries. All in all, a fine meal...I plan to visit again to try some of their other menu items that friends have recommended...as well as getting their sushi again, which I've always enjoyed. Give it a try to see what you think! read more

Located inside the Peppermill Casino. Bright video murals that take up two huge walls and digital clips of scenes from all over the world. Color schemes are aqua with varied shades of blue, green and silver grey. Grand, colorful, and uplifting atmosphere. Service was warm, pleasant and outstanding. Prices were on the higher end. Food was excellent! There's sushi buffet available. We ordered from the a la carte menu. We also declined the bread and butter to save room for the real food. 5*Tempura Vegetables included Yam, Asparagus, Carrot, zucchini, Broccolini: lightly coated and fried vegetables, crispy and delicious, went well with the sesame-soy dibbing sauce. The portion was huge, enough for a meal. 4.5*West Coast Cioppino included Hall Lobster Tail, King Crab, Shrimp, Mussels and Fish, Spicy Tomato Broth, Grilled Bruschetta: seafood was cooked just right, especially lobster and scallop. They were very tender. The Spicy tomato broth was mild spicy , perfect for dipping grilled bruschetta. The portion was huge. 4*Chicken Scaloppini Piccata included Thinly Sliced Chicken Breast, Mushrooms, Capers, Garlic, Lemon, Pinot Grigio, Sweet Butter, and Linguini: tasty, light and filling. The chicken could have been more tender but the presentation was excellent. read more

The host who seated us was abysmal. When he directed us to a very small booth, I requested a larger one, as one side of the booth adjacent to ours was blocked by a large walker for an elderly gentleman. The host indicated the other booths were reserved, however, they were never occupied the entire time we had our very leisurely lunch. The people at the adjacent booth were extremely loud and made it difficult to converse. We enjoyed the quality of the sushi, but management needs to coach the host. For management's reference, we were exactly punctual for a 1 pm reservation on 5/16. read more

Probably the best choice if deciding to eat at the Peppermill. We've been here twice and can say both times the food has been delicious! We had the jumbo prawns wrapped in bacon 10/10! And recently had the Korean Short Ribs and Firecracker Roll and both items were soooo good! Taking off half a star because of the price. Some of the menu offerings are up there $$$ ranging from $30-50+ an entree. read more

This restaurant is pretty spacious and will require reservations a few days or week in advanced. The waiter was very attentive and fast! The atmosphere seem to be controlled, not loud but not quiet.

Craving sushi in Reno? There are options aplenty, but the Peppermill offers 20% off for locals, which is a huge deal. We found ourselves at Oceano on a Saturday night at the peppermill. Upon checking in they told us it was about a 45 minute wait, however we asked if we could sit at the sushi bar and they were able to seat us right away. Service was prompt and we were seated with waters, physical menus and menus on ipads as well, which was really cool. They were out of Sapporo on draft but offered us a large Asahi to split between the both of us. Right off the bat, this place has a really wonderful atmosphere. The travel videos you can find on the walls within the restaurant inspired us to talk about travel pretty much the entire time we were having dinner. We dined in for all you can eat which is about $45 per person. We started off with a cucumber salad and a seaweed salad come of both of which we thought we're just okay. We also ordered some Nigiri, the Donald and the Sake. Yum! For the long rolls we started with the Boom boom roll, which was delicious, but we both agreed it needed something crunchy, like a tempura or cucumber element. Next was the Jackpot roll, which was a little more fried. This was definitely my favorite!! Lastly, we ordered the Spicy Salmon long roll and Crispy Salmon Skin hand roll. Both were delicious! We saved over $20 with our locals discount. In order to get the discount, you just have to have a player's card, be a local to Reno, and present it with your check. The check says our server's name was Amy, but I could have sworn it was something like Kassandra. She was fabulous and very attentive. All of the sushi chefs were as well! Definitely in my top 5 favorite sushi spots in Reno! read more

Even before the renovations , I remember Oceano being the place to go for AYCE sushi. It's been a long time since I've been back , but after coming back , I remember why I liked the Oceano so much. First off: IPad menu? Felt very luxurious and that's just the thing when you first walk into the Oceano, everything feels so luxurious. Of course if you know the Peppermill, their staple is the big screens with the different videos of different locations around the world. Definitely sets the vibe . A lot of people come here for the AYCE sushi, but if you are feeling more on the seafood side, they have different options on seafood dishes including an Oyster platter either half dozen or whole. Lobster Bisque and Clam Chowder for your soup needs to Salmon or Cod dishes that you may want . They will even make you tempura vegetable for an extra charge if you ask the waiter you would like some. But like I said.... a lot of people come for the AYCE sushi and I can't blame them, the sushi here is GOOD. Nigiri sushi can go really good if you know what fresh nigiri sushi should taste like. The Oceano met every expectation for me on that and the freshness of the nigiri is top notch in my opinion. Keep in mind if you are doing lunch here and you want sashimi , they don't offer sashimi for the lunch time apparently , so only dinner time. The only downside of my experience from this past time, was the time wait on the last few rolls my family ordered due to "backed up" orders in the sushi aspect of the restaraunt. We ended up waiting 30 minutes for a long roll of Sake (Salmon) nigiri and two quail egg shooters. The waitress kept saying that it was coming out next and that the staff the day we came in (during lunch hour) was backed up with sushi orders. Not sure if they were understaffed at that time, but it was hard to just sit there for 30 + mins for the small order we did. But again, I was very content with the sushi overall and the luxuriousness from having the hot aromatherapy hand towels at the end really set the bar for me on the Oceano as it always has . read more

Now one thing I will say about Reno and my experience here was that the sushi has been phenomenal. I came and ate all you can eat sushi here and I didn't disappoint like I have so much sushi on the first servant that I wanna get through with about three of them before I was actually full I tried different flavors I never had before And I love the fact that I only can eat them cooked and they were wonderful. read more

I pound king crab legs... I did eat my meal, but this is not 1 pound of crab legs. I make better veggies at home. The crab was absent for the price we paid. I got 2 legs and my husband ordered the main lobster, also at market price. It was trash. For $300 damn dollars 10 out of 10 DO NOT RECOMMEND. The lobster was over cooked and not worth 300 bucks at all. They will screw you. Maybe the sushi bar is good idk, but this 300 bucks for crap is not cool. read more

Besides the increased price and initial awkwardness/bad service by our server Jackie, everything was great. During our Tahoe trip, we drove to Reno and celebrated my dad's birthday at Oceano. We love Oceano and have been dining here whenever we visit Reno. Prices have greatly increased, but the quality you get for the amount you pay is still better than the Bay for their all you can eat option. When asked about what they offer for birthdays as we came to celebrate my dad's birthday, Jackie said, " Ok....(points at another customer from another table) well it's that guy's birthday too...." and "We don't give anything....(awkward pause and stare)..."just a piece of cake." Our initial impression of him wasn't good since the start because of a series of odd things he did including taking away the salt, pepper, and candle from our table without asking when all other tables still had theirs. After we checked off the dishes we wanted from the menu sheet and handed the paper to him, he looked at it, crossed off an item we chose, and just walked off without explaining what he crossed off and why. I noticed his treatment towards a specific race was different. After I made comments about his service, midway his service became more normal. The other two staff members that came by to check on us were wonderful. The menu selection was vast and we liked most of the orders we put in. For the rolls we especially liked, we reordered them and enjoyed our time there. The interior is beautiful and comfortable as well with two big screens on either side of the restraint showing sceneries of different places around the world. The restaurant is clean and something new that they added were iPads to view their menu from. Overall, we had a wonderful time here and we plan to be back again the next time we visit Reno. read more

What an unexpected surprise/find in Reno. Oceano, just a short walk from the side parking lot and only few steps inside the doors of the Peppermill Casino. Upon entering the restaurant (with reservation) I noticed the cool esthetic & the busy atmosphere on Sunday @5:30pm. Immediately greeted and taken to our booth, within moments water and bread were on the table. Service was professional, prompt and friendly. The Oceano Menu is large and varied. Our table orders included: Shrimp Cocktail: Extra Large Shrimp (would compare to any high end Vegas restaurant). Fried Shrimp: Excellent- as good or better than the best I've had in Vegas. Salmon salad: Super fresh salad and ingredients topped with perfectly cooked Salmon filet. Sushi: Wow! Super fresh, nice sized rolls and overall excellent flavor (check out that eel)! Oceano offers AYCE Sushi for lunch and dinner as well. read more

The restaurant is located inside the peppermill resort hotel. It has a panorama screen on both ends of the restaurant displaying nice images of different parts of the world. It has a cute tables/lighting. The sushi we had was very good. The oysters were also good but that little white thing ... equivalent to wasabi, I almost threw up idk what I was expecting LOL but definitely not that. The drink was good however the ginger was very overpowering so if you're not a big ginger fan I wouldn't recommend. Bread was warm soft and paired with a salted butter. The service was also good! read more

Back to the Oceano we go for early dinner late lunch. We love the big hunk of sourdough bread on arrival at the table. They changed their menu now from a paper menu to tablet. That is fine I just hope they sanitize them every time after use. I always wash my hands before I eat, because you can't eat the bread with a fork, but then I have to touch a menu and I do know computers, phone and tablets have germs. Next time I will take the time to ask the desk at the front. I had the Crab Louie Salad and it was good but the crab was a bit dry and lacking flavor. My husband always goes for the Albacore tuna melt and it was good. This place has a great sushi bar but since I am not a sushi fan I never tried it. But I walked by a table of three and the spread of sushi they had just served knocked my socks off. It looked like enough to feed the office. Since I am not a raw fish lover I am glad I asked about their salad with tuna before ordering it. The server told me it was not cooked and I think they should note that on the menu. We love the location of this restaurant and it is right next to the poker room where we play so we eat here on occasion. I know they have great soup as they used to serve it in the poker room. We really miss that when we are playing and hungry. This place has really great atmosphere and the big massive T.V.'s are a delight. I don't think anyone should come in without ordering the clam chowder and it goes right with the sourdough bread. Come try it out. read more
